You Can Only Be

Of your inhibitions you may never be free
But you only can be the best you can be
To live as a  good person and never harm anyone
Is the best form of success when all is said and done
Not everyone can know of wealth and renown
And be admired as a hero of the town
Though wealth and  fame in life does seem to count
At the end of life's journey these to little amount
Though lack of  money it never does win one a friend
It is how you live your  life that does count in the end
The one  with compassion and empathy may not be well known
But his or her sort of person in a class of their own
For people with such gifts though known to be rare
For the poor and marginalized do genuinely care.
